Reasons why Mahathir to stay for 3 years as PM

When Mahathir out of the blue announced that he was going to stay as PM for another 3 years, it took everyone by surprise even though this flip flop king was just being himself . But in this case it was a blatant affront to the PKR and his commitment to quit after two years to let Anwar in. But as days passed, this about turn by Mahathir becomes clearer. It was not out of nothing. It was in defiance and sending a message to Anwar that Mahathir is still the king maker and no one should touch his new protege Azmin that he is grooming to be the next PM.

If one is still wondering what is happening, read the following as reported in the main media to get some clues on this issue. Anwar's position as the next PM is hanging on a string. Many things were unsaid but out there for all to see. No one is saying the whole truth and no one is going to say otherwise. There is high tension in Malaysia on who is going to become the next PM and when.

Here are some extracts from a post in Channel News Asia to understand the intrigue of Malaysia politics and the power struggle that is going on at the moment. On the surface Anwar's relation with Mahathir is normal and his taking over as the PM is still in the cards.

'He added that Economic Affairs Minister Azmin Ali should resign if it is confirmed that he was involved in the video.

“My
initial view is for him not to resign. It will depend on
investigations. If the investigation is conclusive, in terms of the
participants of the act, then I think he needs to resign,” said Mr
Anwar....

In a sharp retort, Mr Azmin said: “Look at the man in the mirror.”

“Ask Anwar to ‘muhasabah diri’ (carry out self-introspection) and reflect on himself,” the minister was quoted as saying by the Malaysian Insight.

According to Malaysian media reports, Mr
Farhash Wafa Salvador Rizal Mubarak - who is Mr Anwar’s political
secretary and PKR’s Kuala Kangsar, Perak division chief - was among
three men detained on Tuesday. The 37-year-old was said to have been
nabbed at a house near Pasir Gudang, Johor....

There have been suggestions that supporters
of Mr Anwar were responsible for the video in a bid to topple Mr Azmin,
but Mr Anwar has refuted the allegations.
Earlier
on Wednesday, Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, when asked for a comment
regarding Mr Farhash’s arrest, replied: “This is the first time I’m
hearing (this).”

When Third World countries indulge in internal strives it provides a rich ground and opportunities for the Evil Empire and its gangs to infiltrate and interfere with the internal affairs of these countries for regime change or through subterfuge to place more pro Evil Empire party in power. The Evil Empire will always fund and support the pro US party or parties. If necessary it will instigate and organize choas and instabilities and public demonstrations as is happening in Hong Kong and Venezuela now. It will of first importance infiltrate in the countries military and police force to gain vital ground and support for US evil design. It is important for these countries not to allow US NGOs to infiltrate into all other government departments. All American NGOs are spies and secret agents and ultimately saboteurs. When American embassies and consulates are overstaffed with far too many officials or officers than required they must be told to cut down the numbers.

Is it just me or does anyone else suspect that Mahathir is leveraging his medical background and engaging in secret "biohacking" to maintain his abilities and sustain/ maintain his life at his extremely advanced age?

The current governing philosophy in the "life extension" research arena is that they are tackling aging as a DISEASE and thus applying disease-fighting strategies. This is really "out of the box" thinking and some of the modalities and treatments are showing promise.

Mahathir is nobody's fool lah. The man is a wiley political super hero...he has proven he can come back from "obscurity" to win back an entire nation and its peoples... a seemingly IMPOSSIBLE achievement.

One thing's for sure: Dr M understands the "Malay dynamic" down to the smallest detail which others might miss. And he'll call out the stuff in the culture which he thinks hold Malays back from progressing. He does it directly without fear of blowback.

This guy's a Master Of The Game lah. Even at his age he can make our super (expensive) government (rated one of the world's best) kalam kabut...🤣😭

IMO Hong Kong people are some of the smartest fuckers around. They'll know "what's what". July 29, 2019 10:07 am

Really? Hong Kong like Singapore was in the right place at the right time. Nothing much about their ingenuity or creativity. The reason for HK and Spore's growth and prosperity was the middle man when the hinterland was unable to access the world market.

Today both have outlived their usefulness. Singapore is luckier as the neighbouring countries still have a lot of catching up to do. Hong Kong is in shit. It has nothing except housing and a commercial and banking district that has already been overtaken and could be totally disregarded. Hong Kong can close down and the rest of China would go on prospering. There is nothing useful in HK to China today.

There is no manufacturing and everything that HK needs come from China. China can close its border with HK and they don't even have enough water or food to get by.

Today, the middleman HK is irrelevant and would be history soon. Can a chaotic HK survive for a few months without China?

Don't dream on it. How much smartness is there in an island of shops and foodstalls, like Singapore? The new world is about high tech, AI, science and technology....

He thought he was very smart in cutting down the price. Ask any contractor and they would know what to do, cutting corners, save a bit here, a bit there and do a bit less here, a bit less there. The cake still looks like a cake but is not the same cake anymore.

Singapore hasn't lost its usefulness lah. A few lazy losers haven't kept themselves competitive and allowed their lazy asses to become COMPLACENT (as warned by Lee KY himself), but in general, the cuntry is doing OK. Most people are OK.

Downturn? Recession? So what, fuckers? Recessions and crises are all part of the cycles (plural) lah. Dun tell me you haven't experienced a recession before, and survived. Stop being cry babies lah. Economic downturns are great for starting new enterprises, buying that flat you couldn't afford before, and picking up discounted VALUE risk assets.

More HK---The capital is doing quite alright! (ETF based on HK market)

Talking rubbish lah. When a cuntry fails you can see it collapse over time. It is never "instant". Look at Venezuela... still standing. Yah, very terok, but still there. Zimbabwe...it's been fucked up for years. Sill there. HK and Singapore have populations which have the highest net worth and incomes in the world. You think so easy to "kaput" ah?

Yes Matilah, recession and depression are the Economic Cycles as what's you said.

But you must know the different scenarios and changes when these recessions and depressions hits us.

Also HK. Wah, Sinkieland and HK have populations which have the highest net worth?

Worth whats? As middle men hawkers and servile businesses? Selling off all our land and KAPUT?

In the 70s when LKY implemented the Stop At Two birthcontrols on thr POP.We are facing massive unemployment.The Brits gave notice of withdrawal from their bases. There are going to be not enough jobs for the POP. Luckiky with LKY's foresight to implement this policy we have had enough time and resources to plan and save massive unemployments.

Now the Secnario is different. The daft son made the grave mistake of getting another 3 millions in. Now at 6.5M.

With this POP and losing all our pass by dates businesses with no innovations to lead us.We are heading into doomsday.

The what's nonsense 4G leaders are also clueless on what to do. Only pausing for time and prayers and kicking the can down the road.

With coming massive unemployment due to your take it easy economic as usual recession. Aiya chicken feed. The POP of 6.5M will be at each other throats for survivals.

If the Papies are able to con the daft sinkies and have the majority of them scavenging the roads and blaming on their arses luck.Well and Good.

But if the foreign locusts were in this situation, HELL will broke loose. You think they are so senile and ballless like our local sinkies?

They are revolutionaries from their countries of births.

MOT. If China too lan and renged their Agreement and straightaway havd HK and Taiwan in theit fold.They gonna be jelled into One and leave what's Sinkieland's Frantic Centre in thr cold.

Die cock standing with 6.5M POP to solve. LKY be stirring in his grave.Maybe be be jump up and giving kicks to his imbeciles predessors.

So when Singapore sink. It will be like a Rock sang right to the bottom.

So don't havr too high hopes of Sinkies high net worth.

Afterall you are here just as a locust and too bad cannnot exploit your hotel stay and the blood and sweat of honest Singaporeans anymore.

I thought this post is about Malaysia going Kaput. But, as always, Sinkieland suffers from collateral damage in the process. Just like when things go wrong in the world, China is to be blamed.

Now about Malaysia. Mahathir, it seems, is not too keen to let Anwar take over the PM's seat. He is putting in the foundation for his son to take over eventually. Anwar is just being used to build all the bridges for the old man to regain power, not to succeed him. And Anwar has to be careful not to be the star of another 'soto mi' sequel.

If Anwar does take over the PM's seat, as seat warner if you believe, the chances of Mahathir's son becoming the next PM after Anwar is questionable. Even though Anwar is not as young, but if he lives to be 93 like the old man, that is a pretty long time to warm a hot seat. By then the seat might become too hot for Mahathir's son to sit on, with the old man probably gone and unable to exercise his grandmaster move of deflecting blows from the opposition. Sounds familiar?

On the surface, Mahathir and Anwar seems amicably agreeable, but people can still see underneath the strained effort to put on a cordial front. I do not believe that Anwar can easily forgive and forget what Mahathir did to him in the past. And I believe in the saying that there or no permanent friends, only permanent enemies. This coalition was formed in the first place to get rid of Najib over the 1MDB issue, not because they are renewing their tumultuous friendship or hated of each other in the past, just like Trump and Kim.

Even Anwar's family, I am sure, has not forgiven the old man, with Anwar's daughter still harbouring anger over the treatment of her father by the old man in the past, calling the old man a dictator before she resigned.

Things are getting interesting in Malaysia. Most of ASEAN members are moving fast forward, even countries like Cambodia and Laos, and Malaysia, because of her racial politics in play, is going to be the next sick man of ASEAN. Do not tell that to the Mats, because you will get a fatwa for sure.

HK's current exports of $550B is nothing to sniff at --- like S'pore, it punches above its weight!!! LOL!!!

On a per capita basis, it still out-exports China's $2T worth of exports.

Oh and HK imports close to $300B (forming part of the $2T) from China i.e. HK serves as a VERY longstanding conduit for Chinese exports via HK .... that is exempt from tariffs & enjoys preferential trade (WTO) treatment --- which Trump has just now realised & getting pissed (S'pore also included).

No matter how cynical one can get about Malaysia, it is a blessed country.Malaysians shall enjoy live of plenty no matter who runs it.

lt is no point having talent and benign leaders who have little or nothing to work on. Even if the Super Ables manage to create a miracle or two, they shall run out of resource.A good cook is useless when there is no ingredient to cook. At best he or she gets only to reheat left-over and this is what the 4G will have to so. They are ranting about how good and capable they are now. But, no guarantee that the Taikong will abandon the Sampan before the Passengers.

lt is likely that the more affordable will leave Sin to enjoy better livings in larger and fast improving societies.Why would one stays in a well with water fast drying up ?

'Luckiky with LKY's foresight to implement this policy we have had enough time and resources to plan and save massive unemployments.

You got this all wrong Virgo. It was the pragmatic economist in Goh Keng Swee that solved Singapore's problems in those days. We still have a LKY type as PM but no Goh Keng Swee economist to solve our economic problems.

All the so called solutions are double edged swords and would kill the economy eventually.

WSG

Where did HK got $2t products from exports? With the small population in HK, how could it import $300b? Answer, middle man. When China decides to do away with this middle man, HK is a hollow economy.

The wealth of HK is he same as Spore, property prices and shops and nothing else. What did HK produce today, where are the factories?

When the economy collapses in either country, the properties would fall like coconuts and the shops would have no buyers. Look at the trend in Spore from the things they reported and deemed important, like graduates aspiring to become hawkers, innovations in food, when the world is running away with AIs, science and technology....

What kind of future is a nation that brags about hawker centres and hawker food? What kind of future is there for a nation that depends on the import of third world fake talents and cheats to create jobs for its people?

HK with China as the hinterland is finish. There is nothing in HK except properties and shops.

lt is naive to think that Sin can depend on construction industry to create job and grow the Economy. ln fact, it is not only foolish to think so, it is VERY DANGEROUS on two aspects. First is the Depletion of the Scare Land mass. Secondly, most developments shall have to be sold to aliens as the Locals are not able to afford them. Do not forget the Filthy are here to park their wealth, clean, ill-gotten or laundering. Property price is getting crazy in Sin precisely because of this quick fix economic pursuit.

As it is,native population is near below 50% and should fall below very soon. Sin is as good as sold and Sinkies are pawning themselves.

Virgo 49 is prescient of the Fact that many of the Developments shall be white elephants in time to come.l shall further add that they will not only be wasted, they shall be liabilities.

We have dreamers that think and talk cheap but hardly deliver anything.The Prosperity that we have enjoyed thus far has come from the toils of sweat and blood from the People at Large.Tan Lark Sye, Lee Kwong Chian, Lim Nee Soon, C K Tang, Nippon Paint Boss, Wee Chow Yau and many others are the Folks that make Sin into what it is today.Of course Raffles was the One that deserves the Greatest Credit for making Sin the Centre of lnternational Trades.

As for the 4G Leaders, they are nothing but spoilt brats, spending and splurging at the Expenses of the People and either sweet talk or talk big depending on their agenda.

Your brain is still stuck in the 1990s if you think HK main business is still being a middleman.

Anymore than saying SG main biz is middleman to China or middleman to SE Asia.

HK's main exports are finance & services, not manufactured goods. In the 1980s, everybody was saying HK is finished becoz they became too costly for large scale manufacturing & a large portion of their economy dissapeared within a few years.

Those who sold their cheap HK properties in the 1980s & left ended up being the stupid ones.

“The propagandist’s purpose is to make one set of people forget that certain other sets of people are human.”

– Aldous Huxley

The only way to turn one human being against another human being is to somehow make them all believe that others are different. So it’s never a human who fights against another human; instead, it’s a set of beliefs that fights against another set of beliefs.

American propagandists made their US citizens believe that they are exceptional (i.e. special) from the rest of the world, subtly ingrained into their unthinking numb-skull that they are superior to all other people in the whole world. Thereby, the propagandists inflated the pride of the Americans as a special people (similar to Hitler's Third Reich, Moses' Chosen Ones, and some religious leaders' God's Children). In this way, the propagandists/politicians in the White House (not called white house for nothing - it represents Whitemen) in Washington (not called Washington for nothing - it is the centre where brain-washing ideas spread) make themselves even more special - become the Rulers of the Entire World! That's why World Domination and Hegemony haa always been the object and aim of the USA - meaning the United Slaves of Arch-Angel (represented by the Statue of Liberty).

Countering Brain-Washing

One way to stop being brainwashed by propaganda is for you to stay conscious of your thoughts, assumptions and presumptions; and never let these beliefs control your attitude, behaviour and character.

Taking the Red or Blue Pill is entirely up to you - YOU HAVE A CHOICE.

HK can only be a successful financial centre with China's backing. Once China rules this out, with the stupid Hongkies running riots, see who is the stupid ones and where is Hong Kong tomorrow?
